The back door of my house can last until the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 398 Surrender to the East
Louis XIV was very unconvinced. Seeing the arrogant appearance of Philip IV, he felt uncomfortable.

What he said in the hall just now has deeply affected him, and he can't wait to tear him into pieces.

There is no problem with what Richelieu said, it is very correct.

For a country, killing their king can easily arouse the common hatred of the people of the country. Unless the country's vital forces can be wiped out, otherwise, no matter how many kings are killed, it is of little value.

Killing the king of a country is equivalent to starting a war against the country. At this critical juncture, a single Sun Jie is enough to cause them a headache. If Spain is forced to take over, the consequences may be unimaginable.

Louis XIV clenched his hands, clenched his teeth, and his face was full of murderous intent, but in the end, it turned into sighs.

He is now caught in a dilemma. It is impossible to kill Felipe IV, and he will lose his face if he is let go. Comfort is uncomfortable.

Uncomfortable is uncomfortable, but his actions did not stop because of this.

About three or four days later, he convened another meeting, and invited all the remaining monarchs and kings except Spain to the Louvre, and held a grand song and dance party.

In the main hall, those candles mixed with spices were burning quietly, exuding a strong fragrance. Luxuriously dressed men and women twisted their bodies on the dance floor, and those court musicians played elegant and noble music.

Louis XIV walked through the crowd with a wine glass, toasting every monarch who came to the meeting.

Today, his attitude is much lower than before, and he doesn't have that domineering look at all.

Cromwell, Hendrick and Ferdinand III followed closely behind Louis XIV.

Now these people are almost following the lead of Louis XIV, especially Cromwell and Ferdinand III, who almost handed over all their wealth to him.

The party was peaceful and lively, and the kings and monarchs present were very satisfied.

As the banquet came to an end, Louis XIV did not express his purpose in a hurry.

In fact, these monarchs also knew what Louis XIV wanted to do.That's the way it is today, and there is no alternative.

At the same time, the fleet led by Zheng Zhilong has arrived on the waters of Africa.

Because the world has not yet dug the Suez Canal, the fleet must detour to Africa and head to the West.

It is said that the farthest place Zheng Chenggong has ever been to was the Cape of Good Hope. If there was the Suez Canal at that time, maybe he could reach the west directly, and it is very likely that history will be changed because of him.

Europe is the richest continent in the whole world, where the land is fertile and rich in minerals.

When Zheng Zhilong passed through Africa on his way to the west, he even sent people to investigate.

In his view, the wealth contained in this land is not inferior to that of the whole West. The black people living on it use very backward weapons. There are even few steel knives, guns and sticks. Traditional stone weapons.

Destroying such a civilization is easy for him now.

But this is not his main purpose. Today, his main purpose is still the Western world.

As the ship got closer and closer to the western world, Charles I's silent heart also became restless.

It's been a long time since I left my hometown, and I don't know what's going on now, and I don't know if the people there still remember him.

Walking on the deck of the aircraft carrier, Charles I looked a bit bleak and flustered.

As the saying goes, the closer you are to the hometown, the more timid you are, and you dare not ask people.

Charles I's mood was very complicated.

Zheng Zhilong stood behind him, patted him on the shoulder, and said: "This time your majesty asked you to come back with me, I think you should understand what your majesty is thinking, don't worry too much about those problems, with me here, don't be afraid of these things. "

Charles I turned around with a sad expression on his face, "My lord is right, but now, why do I feel something is wrong in my heart! Maybe now, no one in my hometown knows me. Before I leave, Abandon all the royalist troops and members of the nobles, maybe they have been killed by now!"

Having said that, Charles I's mood became more and more depressed.

He didn't think of these things at all when he was running for his life. Now, when he suddenly recalled these things, he always felt uncomfortable.

Zheng Zhilong didn't know how to persuade him, and he could only rely on himself for this kind of thing.

The ship continued to sail, moving forward slowly, even the blue waves could not stop the advance of the Huaxia aircraft carrier.

The reconnaissance plane flying in the sky is the eyes of the aircraft carrier formation.

Zheng Zhilong returned to the tower, and as usual, he held up his binoculars to observe the surrounding sea.

A staff officer suddenly came behind him and hurriedly said: "My lord, the No. [-] reconnaissance plane reported that several sailing battleships suddenly appeared on the sea ahead, and these sailing battleships are still flying our national flag!"

This made Zheng Zhilong very puzzled. He turned around with a look of surprise on his face, "How is this possible with sailing battleships flying our national flag? We don't have sailing battleships at all, and the ships in the formation are basically Fuchuan. Although there are a few sailing battleships, we didn't leave these things in the west at all, how could it be possible?"

Zheng Zhilong couldn't figure it out, so he could only let the reconnaissance plane approach for reconnaissance.

The reconnaissance planes flying in the sky all headed towards the sailing battleships.

Even flying at low altitude, passing over the mast of the sailing battleship.

The pilots sitting in the cockpit saw the crew on the deck.

These people all have foreigners' faces, exotic clothes, and big beards, which look really ugly.

When the news was sent to Zheng Zhilong, he understood.

There is a high probability that these people came here to surrender, flying the national flag of Daqin. Apart from this possibility, Zheng Zhilong can't think of anything else.

His conjecture was very correct. These sailing battleships sailed from Spain to contact Zheng Zhilong.

They brought Felipe IV's order and contacted Zheng Zhilong and the others.

After Felipe IV went back, he thought about it for several days. There is no room for relaxation between him and Louis XIV. The contradiction has become more and more acute. In addition, almost the entire Western world is now against him. Once the coalition forces are formed, No one knew whether they were guarding against Sun Jie at the first moment or destroying him.

He didn't dare to bet on the future of the country with his own wealth and life.

People always have to live, and they cannot die early. Since Louis XIV cannot get through here, it is better to change another place.

For example, surrender to Sun Jie.

Before that, he had thought carefully and thought about many problems.

He didn't know what Sun Jie's main purpose was. Since Charles I could surrender, why couldn't he?
Anyway, staying in the West is also one, why not find a strong thigh?
After figuring out these problems, he dispatched these sailing battleships.

When they left, these sailing battleships were very careful. They were afraid of being discovered by Louis XIV and the others, so they didn't dare to fly the national flag of Daqin.

Only now did they dare to hang the national flag of Daqin when they were far away.

Felipe IV did not know the exact time when Zheng Zhilong arrived in the West, but he also found out about it through various means.

It can be considered that these people were lucky to meet Zheng Zhilong before he arrived in the west.

This is a small formation consisting of three sailing battleships. The front sailing battleship is the largest and has the strongest combat effectiveness.

The leader was an earl named Shulchi, a fat man around 40 years old, and a confidant of Felipe IV.

At this time, he was standing on the deck of the sailing battleship, holding a single-lens telescope in his hand, looking at the sky.

The fighter planes passing over the mast from time to time are like huge iron birds with people inside.

"My God, is this the messenger of the gods? Why, why is there such a thing in the world, it's really terrifying!" Shulqi looked confused.

Before leaving, King Felipe IV told him about Zheng Zhilong and also told him the news from the Safavid Empire.

When he knew the news, he felt outrageous and didn't believe it.

Because in his opinion, this kind of thing is impossible to happen.

An iron bird that can fly in the sky, how is this possible?

But now, all those doubts in my heart disappeared at this moment.

"This, this, if this is the case, then this Eastern Empire is really terrifying, it is simply terrifying!"

Shulchi opened his mouth wide and panicked.

A reconnaissance plane accelerated and passed over the mast, and the wind and waves it set off knocked many people over.

Some ignorant crew members even knelt on the deck and kowtowed to the plane in the sky.

This is an era when feudal superstition prevails, and being able to fly is a sacred thing.

"Go ahead, keep going, don't forget our mission!"

Shulchi put away the binoculars in his hand, and at the same time he raised the white flag.

The boat went on, faster and faster.

About two hours later, Schulchi saw the most terrifying thing in his life.

A huge ship was pressing towards Shuerqi, like a mountain, it was a great god lurking on the sea, it was the palace where God lived.

This is the Huaxia aircraft carrier, the most powerful warship in the world.

Looking down from the sky, the contrast is so strong that it is hard to accept.

The light of rice grains competes with the sun and the moon.

"Oh buy, oh buy, oh buy, why is this, why is this? What is this, what is this?!"

Schulchi knelt down on the ground with a plop, and kowtowed to the aircraft carrier continuously.

He was still yelling at the crew members who kowtowed to the plane just now, but this did not affect his behavior at this time.

"God, what is this! Is this East really a place favored by God? Why do they have such a terrifying and powerful thing?
The huge iron bird that is flying in the sky, and now there is a giant ship like a mountain, how did this be made, and what kind of gods and men are able to make such a ship! "

Shulch yelled until his voice became hoarse.

The crew members behind him were even worse than him, what's more, they rolled their eyes in excitement and collapsed to the ground.

As the aircraft carrier got closer, Shulchi finally discovered the crisis.

If they can't change direction before the aircraft carrier comes, they will only be crushed to pieces by this huge ship.

"Change course quickly, change course quickly, hurry up!"

Shulchi slapped himself on the head suddenly, and yelled all around.

Those sailors also came back to their senses amid his yelling, and steered the boat to the side quickly.

His speed was very fast, and within a short period of time, he left the aircraft carrier's route.

Zheng Zhilong didn't intend to sink it either, since these people came to him, let's see what kind of thoughts they have.

Since the flag of Daqin can be hoisted, and the white flag can also be hoisted, there is a high probability that they are not enemies.

The aircraft carrier also began to slow down, and several small boats were lowered from the aircraft carrier and headed towards Schulchi and the others.

Looking at the small boats, Shulchi breathed a sigh of relief.

It didn't take long for Shulchi to be taken aboard the aircraft carrier.

As soon as he came to the deck of the aircraft carrier, he was so overwhelmed by the wide space that he couldn't speak.

Walking across the vast deck, Shulchi saw the planes parked on the deck.

His eyes were full of horror, his legs were involuntarily numb, and he couldn't even take a step forward.

The soldiers following him took his arms and moved him step by step towards the tower.

Not long after, he came in front of Zheng Zhilong.

It was almost the same as before, his legs were numb, and he could hardly move.

"Where did you come from? Why are you flying the flag of our Great Qin Empire? And why are you flying a white flag? What is your purpose?"

Zheng Zhilong asked in fluent English.

In fact, Zheng Zhilong knew Spain, and Spain was also called Frangji in the Ming Dynasty. Zheng Zhilong had been dealing with Frangji people before, so he naturally understood what they said.

Shulchi didn't answer, and what he saw and heard just now was still in his mind.

The soldiers behind him stabbed him several times before he could react.

Zheng Zhilong asked him again.

"Your Excellency, I am Schulchi, an envoy sent by the King of Spain, here to contact Your Excellency!"

Shulchi stuttered and said his intentions.

"Contact? Why contact me? Does your king have other ideas?" Zheng Zhilong asked with a smile.

Charles I on the side also came over, he looked at Shulqi in front of him, and said with a smile: "Hey, this fellow Felipe IV, did he also have thoughts that he shouldn't have?

I remember he was very arrogant before?To be an enemy of the entire West, why are you sent out now? "

Louis XIV had also fought against Philip IV before, and the army in his hands had fought against the Spanish army more than once. To some extent, they should be regarded as enemies.

"You, you are His Royal Highness?!"

Schulchi looked at Charles I and recognized him.

"you know me?"

There was a bit of banter on Charles I's face.

"I've seen the portrait of His Highness before, and now it's rumored in the West that you have surrendered to the East, so I can guess it!" Schulchi said.

"It seems that you came prepared!"
